David Brock is a Clinton loyalist, apparatchik for the Democrat Party as founder of Media Matters, and the former boyfriend of Comet Ping Pong owner James Alefantis who, though a “mere” pizza restaurateur, was named by GQ magazine as 49th among the 50 most powerful people in Washington, D.C.

8 months ago in September 2016, someone hacked into Correct the Record — a Hillary super PAC founded by Brock — and obtained the transcript of a conversation between Brock and three other Democrat operatives the morning after the first presidential debate on Sept. 26 between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton. The transcript was posted on Reddit and other sites.
